Nokia Communicator was insane. Telnet/ssh connection was a game changer. It was device for professionals, not for mass market. Selling same core concept to both mass markets and professionals * has made everything cheaper and more powerful, and * has decreased input ergonomics for heavy users. Communicator/Blackberry with hardware keyboards were in some sense peak in input ergonomics for accuracy and speed in thumb-typing. Now it's just less or more suck with touch screens. I don't even bother to install ssh terminal for iPhone because easier/faster to carry tiny laptop than suffer the experience.
